Three Year Standard Diploma

Customer Benefits

1.      Supports English Language Acquisition Through Well Designed Course Sequencing:

• By starting th eprogram with less intensive courses that require less writing, students can build confidence and skill as they focus listening and speaking skills in their elective courses.  
• In the second half of the program, students progress to literature classes that require the highest level of English reading and writing proficiency.
• When they graduate, they will be prepared with the listening and speaking skills required for university class discussions as well as the reading and essay writing ability that is expected in U.S. universities.

2.      Complements Most Local Schools’ Curricula

• Not only do courses appeal to students’ academic needs and contemporary interests, they were selected to complement rather than replace local school offerings. For most schools, it is uncommon to offer similar electives or literature courses taught by U.S. teachers.

3.      Enables FasterStart-Up time

• By relying on our expertise in program design and preparation for university in English, schools and students will experience a shorter lead time before implementing the program.

4.      Accommodates School and Student Needs with Flexible Implementation

• Though our course of study is prescribed, we can modify aspects of it based on the customer needs.

§ Student level:  

•  For low English proficiency student groups, we have a plan that swaps in ELL during the first year.
•  For advanced students, we have a plan that swaps in AP and University courses during the second half of the program.

‍

§ Teaching model:

• All teaching models continue to be available.  Having cohorts of more students within the same class will make any live teaching models or Teacher Time sessions more successful.

§ Timing:

• As always, we can start the program any time of the year, based on the school’s schedule.
•  We can modify the standard three-year program to extend longer or to compress into a shorter time period.
